Dinner @ Perilla

Not having seen the first season of Top Chef, I didn’t know much about Harold Deiterle’s performance on the show. All I’d seen of his cooking was in the Season 1 vs. Season 2 challenge, which is to say, not very much at all. This past summer, he opened up his own restaurant – though, technically, he co-owns the place – Perilla. Finally able to get a reservation, I went with a few friends for dinner last week.

After enjoying a great meal, I asked to go out back into the kitchen to compliment and thank the chef. When we got back there, Harold was putting the finishing touches on an entree.
